The Board
The Turning Point Workforce Development Board (WDB) is composed of leaders from the private and public sectors. This organization has the authority to determine how NC Works Career Centers, Workforce Investment Opportunity Act (WIOA) and federal/state Employment and Training funds are used in the Region. The board reviews, monitors and evaluates all programs and services and awards contracts. Staff to the Board monitors the progress of programs, coordinates planning and provides technical assistance to providers and supports the WDB.
Committees of the Board are: Executive, Finance and Personnel, WIOA, and NexGen Youth Standing Committee. These groups meet separately to discuss any issues, review documents or bring forward ideas to the full Board that may pertain to their specific areas.
